Expeditions You Might Like

Certainly one of the most iconic and memorable expeditions one can take, Galápagos adventure travel is exhilarating and humbling. You’ll find yourself in the company of species found nowhere else in the world, walking among abundant wildlife that has grown astonishingly fearless in the absence of humans and large predators. On your Galápagos tour, you might find yourself face to face with a pair of courting blue-footed boobies, sitting next to a marine iguana as it basks in the sun, or snorkeling amidst a family of playful sea lions.

Discover the enchanting lesser-visited isles of the Eastern Caribbean, calling at quaint ports and tiny islands that larger cruise ships simply can’t access. Step back in time as you explore historic forts, constructed to protect important trade routes with Europe. Stroll along peaceful plazas and sleepy lanes where graceful colonial buildings harken back to the heyday of the 19th-century sugar-boom. Join naturalists on nature hikes to discover a variety of colorful birds, including several endemic species.

Explore five countries on this ever-popular South America tour: Brazil, French Guiana, Suriname, Guyana, and Trinidad & Tobago. By Zodiac and on foot search tributaries and rainforest habitats for abundant wildlife, such as sloths, nearly 30 species of monkeys, and, with luck, pink Amazon river dolphins. Bird species number in the thousands here, including the colorful red-and-green macaw, Guianan cock-of-the-rock, and toco toucan—exceeded only by the nearly 1,800 species of dazzling butterflies.
